Caixa Loterias announced this Friday (2) that the Mega-Sena drawing, originally scheduled for Sunday (4), has been moved up due to the first round of elections. The drawing will take place this Saturday (3) at 9 p.m.
In addition to Mega-Sena, six other lottery formats have had their drawings advanced. These include Lotofácil, Quina, Timemania, Dia da Sorte, +Milionária, and Loteria Federal.
The final deadline for placing bets is 8 p.m. on Saturday (3). The g1 channel has been broadcasting all Caixa Lotteries drawings live since April, starting moments before each contest, both on its website and on the g1 YouTube channel.
The minimum amount for a Mega-Sena bet is R$ 6, and it is also possible to play online until 8 p.m. Participants can place their bets at any lottery outlet in the country or using the Caixa Lotteries website and application, accessible on various devices such as smartphones and computers.
For digital pools, the purchase limit is 8:30 p.m., and this must be done exclusively through the Loterias Online portal or the respective application. Payments for online bets accept PIX, credit card, or internet banking for Caixa customers. Participants must be 18 years of age or older to participate.
Mega-Sena has three weekly drawings, occurring on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.
The chance of winning in each contest depends on the number of numbers chosen and the type of bet placed. According to Caixa, in a simple game, with only six numbers and a cost of R$ 6, the probability of winning the main prize is 1 in 50,063,860.
In contrast, a maximum bet, containing 20 numbers and costing R$ 232,560.00, offers a probability of winning of 1 in 1,292, as reported by the institution.
